"I think that people used women's liberation as an excuse to get rid of chivalry. Then, my big brain says that chivalry did not exist for everyone all the time anyway. Women used to be traded or sold like cattle before. People marry for…"

Just wishing the best for you...
It's almost school time and I know that everyone is still enjoying the summer. However, I just wanted to wish the best for all of you. I do so almost everyday. Latinitas means much to me. It is an incredible organization with beautiful young women with bright futures ahead of them. I wish all of you to continue working hard and have no limits. Keep dreaming big and reaching up. It gets better always. I know that school can get frustrating sometimes but the best thing that a young…See More

Writing is hard
I'm just going to vent. Writing has become this big issue for me. I love writing and it used to be a simple task that I was not afraid of or had to actively think about. However, I am still at alert. I want to make sure that all my writing makes sense but I also have so much to say and so many words to say it in. I continue to write things that don't entirely make sense or aren't as detailed. This means that some people haven't done their job right and taught me well. I'm a good writer…See More

Transcendental Feminism: It's time for the fourth wave
I can hear two televisions as I write this post. One is blasting the loud music of an action movie and the other is blasting a novela. My sister Jazmin is keeping me company although is very busy studying for her summer math course. I'm sitting in the kitchen writing because I feel this intense energy and wish with all my heart that I was actually at the Texas Capitol seeing feminist history unfold. I keep thinking of what the word means to me and how important it is going to be from now…See More
Dear Feminist,
Dear Feminist,I want to express the unconditional gratitude I have for you. You kept me company when I was sad, angry, and vulnerable. You were there to help me when I needed someone the most. I want to thank you for all the strength you have given me and for helping me reach my goals and complete them. I love you. I am very lucky to have you because you have transformed me from a shy little girl to an incredible woman. I am a leader because of your passion and determination. Keep being…See More

There are plenty of reasons why I'm not at the Texas Capitol at this moment. It is the one place I wish I were at right now but I cannot be. If everything happens for a reason, I believe that part of why I'm not able to be there today is because I would get in trouble. The Capitol has been inundated for days with women and men protesting what the media is calling "abortion bills." The uproar started when Sen. Wendy Davis, D-Houston, stood for more than 13 hours to filibuster Senate…

I don't know what to write about today. Well, every day there is so much I would like to say that I end up not saying much at all. My life is crazy. One day I'm having the worst day of my life but, in the next, I get closer to my dreams. I feel the love again and it is a perfect thing.
I guess I'll talk about love. Love is the most cliché thing you can talk about. At least, I've always thought so. It is hard for me to open up and say I love you. But then it isn't hard at…
